Therefore alternative table format is suggested in this contribution, and the text changes are proposed for AAI-Multi_BS_MIMO-REQ MAC control messages. Proposed Text Remedy 1: In the P802.16m/D8, page 190, line 7, replace Table 719 with the following table: -------------------------------------------------- Text Start ----------------------------------------------------------------- Table 719—Parameters for AAI_Multi_BS_MIMO-REQ message Field multiBsMimoRequest Size (bit) 1 Value/Description Condition 0b0: Single-BS precoding with Multi-BS Coordination 0b1: Multi-BS Joint MIMO Processing Single-BS precoding with Multi-BS Coordination If (multiBsMimoRequest == 0b0){ NIP value encoded as difference to NIP_th_1 when multiBsMimoRequest = 0b0. The value shall be interpreted as unsigned 2bits with units of 0.5dB nipValueForSingleBS 2 for (i=1; i<=numbs; i++){ tempBsid 4 0b00 : NIP_th_1 dB 0b01 : NIP_th_1+0.5 dB 0b10 : NIP_th_1+1.0 dB 0b11 : above NIP_th_1+1.5 dB numbs is the number of base station which exceeds threshold Range: 1-8 This represents Temp_BSID. Temp_BSID is broadcasted through AAI-DL_IM message } } Multi-BS Joint MIMO Processing If (multiBsMimoRequest == 0b1){ bitmapForRequestedAdjABSs 8 nipValueForJoint 2 Each bit in this bitmap represents one ABS and the i-th bit (i=1,…,8) represents the neighboring ABS (listed in AAI-DL-IM message) with the i-th strongest channel to the AMS. Please refer 16.5.1.4. Sum NIP value encoded as difference to NIP_th_2 when multiBsMimoRequest = 0b1. The value shall be interpreted as unsigned 2bits with units of 0.5dB 2 IEEE C802.16m-10/1216r2 0b00 : NIP_th_2 dB 0b01 : NIP_th_2+0.5 dB 0b10 : NIP_th_2+1.0 dB 0b11 : above NIP_th_2+1.5 dB } -------------------------------------------------- Text End ----------------------------------------------------------------- 3
